227. The President Killed By Death
"Even if you just go to the toilet, it will take too long, right?"
"Okay, then I'll go take a look."
When the staff member turned his head, his expression suddenly changed.
Mouri Kogoro was a little confused: "What's wrong? What happened?"
The staff was so frightened that they could not speak completely: "That...that is
Wu Fan and others looked in the direction pointed by the staff and found a figure appearing in front.
Conan shouted: "It's the Death Circle."
The assistant director shouted: "Camera, move the camera over."
Wu Fan and others ran directly towards the direction of the Death Formation.
Seeing Wu Fan and others running toward him, the Death Array immediately turned around and ran away.
Soon, the figures in the Death Formation disappeared into the jungle.
Mouri Kogoro looked around and found that there was no trace of the Death Formation.
"Damn it! That guy actually escaped."
Conan reminded: "Oh no, we fell into the trap of diverting the tiger away from the mountain. I'm afraid Mr. Nanjo is in danger."
Mouri Kogoro's expression changed drastically after hearing this, and he ran towards Nanjo's residence, with Wu Fan and Conan following closely behind.
When I got to Nanjo's downstairs, I met Satomi by chance.
Mouri Kogoro asked: "Miss Satomi, what's going on?"
Satomi explained: "When I was at the burger restaurant over there just now, I saw the Death Array running into that building."
"What did you say?"
Just then, a gunshot was heard upstairs.
"Damn it!"
Afterwards, Wu Fan and others immediately came upstairs.
As soon as he got out of the elevator, Mouri Kogoro tripped over something on the ground.
Mouri Kogoro looked at the thing on his feet and complained: "Damn it, what's with this tape?"
Wu Fan said: "Isn't this insulating tape?"
"Ah--~!"
Just then, a scream sounded.
Wu Fan and others came to Mrs. Nanjo's side and found that Nanjo was dead, with blood stains on the wall above her head.
Mrs. Nanjo was so frightened that she threw herself into Satomi's arms next to her and kept sobbing.
Not long after, the police arrived.
"Then the murderer suddenly disappeared from the crime scene, right? Brother Mouri."
Mouri Kogoro nodded and said: "That is to say, all the windows here are locked from the inside and cannot be opened. If you escape from the seventh floor, you can only use the elevator or escape stairs. But When our group rushed there, the murderer suddenly disappeared."
Officer Megure asked, "Are you sure no one left the building before the police arrived?"
Ran Mouri said: "Yes, because we and the radio reporter were all in front of the building.
"But where is the escape staircase?"
Satomi said: "Mr. Police, as long as the escape stairs of this building lead to the first floor, they will lead to the same direction as the elevator, so if you want to go out, you still have to go through the same exit."
Ran Mouri added: "At that time, I also paid attention to the escape stairs, but I didn't see anyone coming down.
Officer Megure said with a serious face: "According to what you said, the murderer disappeared like smoke."
Conan said: "Don't you think something is strange? Because when the lights in this room were turned on, the murderer was clearly standing by the window looking out, but the fluorescent light switch was on the wall next to the door. Who was the murderer? How did you turn on the fluorescent lights in this room?"
Ran Mouri said: "It's really strange to say so."
Officer Megure asked: "But why did the murderer deliberately leave this roll of insulating tape at the scene of the murder?"
Mouri Kogoro put forward his own opinion: "He may have wanted us people to trip over the tape when we got here, so that he could create a gap for the murderer to escape."
Wu Fan was speechless. If that was the case, then why not use something bigger or cover the door of the room with tape? Wouldn't it be easier to trip? And the only person who tripped just now was Mouri Kogoro. Therefore this assumption simply does not hold.
At this time, Conan took out a piece of paper from the fax machine next to him, and Wu Fan came over.
Conan said: "This is a fax asking her to finalize the manuscript. At 10:03, it was not long before Mr. Nanjo was killed, and it happened to be the time when the Death Array appeared in the park, but this..."
Mouri Kogoro punched Conan directly: "You brat, how many times have I told you not to touch anything on site."
Satomi explained: "..." That is a special interview manuscript that will be published in the magazine next week. Mr. Nanjo will stay in the company just to spread the news. "real
At this moment, a male voice rang out: "Let me go!"
The police officer brought a man up and said to Officer Megure: "Team leader, this man was sneaking outside just now.
The man said: "Stop talking nonsense, I, Daye, am not a suspicious person."
Mouri Kogoro asked: "Mr. Ohno, where were you just now?"
Ohno explained: "After I came out of the bathroom, I found that everyone was gone, so I kept looking for everyone in the park.
Mrs. Nanjo looked excited: "It must be you, you must be the one who killed my husband."
Ohno retorted: "What are you talking about?"
Mouri Kogoro looked at Ohno with suspicious eyes: "By the way, among all the relevant people who were not at the murder scene at the time, you seem to be the only one who has no alibi (of No's)."
Mrs. Nanjo was emotional: "You must have a grudge for the accident three years ago, so you killed my husband."
"Stop talking nonsense!"
Officer Megure asked: "What's going on? What happened three years ago?"
Ohno sighed and said: "Well, although what I shoot now are some news TV programs, I was originally a director who specialized in making movies. When I was shooting the movie "Inside the Death Circle" three years ago, After that accident, I switched to television."
"I remember that day, the stunt double who had been scheduled for the filming never showed up on the set. Nanjo said he didn't want a stunt double. I thought it was too dangerous, so I refuted it. Then he asked Kitano to be a stuntman, and Kitano was happy We agreed, and Nanjo forced us to continue filming, so we had to bite the bullet and start filming.
